3.5 stars. I had a fairly decent time with this book. I think that the biggest strength of the book is the pov, but it also is the most challenging part to adapt to (third person in a contemporary romance is a bit different for me). I felt that the language was a bit flowery and repetitive at times, but the dialogue felt realistic and emotional, so I'm conflicted on that front.
I think due to the nature of the structure of the book (the marriage and instalove happening before we really even meet the characters), things were often told to the reader instead of shown. I loved the parts when we got to see the two leads interacting and getting to know one another because they did have a complex dynamic, and both felt like real people.
Overall, this is a pretty good book, and I would recommend it if you're looking for a sort of midlife crisis-esque plot with some interesting tropes and twists.

Good book but it’s too repetitive at times. Also the friends seem forcefully “diverse” and lack depth
really i would say 3.75 stars
honestly, highly relatable. i love books about female academics struggling w internalized white supremacy. it’s a v real struggle

Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC of this title. I really wanted to love this book because I love the premise, and how it centers on BIPOC queer characters, but I mostly found the main character to be lacking in depth. The book digs deep into the concerns many of us have faced as millennials who have achieved the goals they've set from a young age, and aren't sure how to proceed. It definitely speaks to the struggles of BIPOC queer people to be respected in the world, and I appreciate those aspects of it.
The writing style is sometimes hard to follow, and I wish there was more behind the main characters decision making and feelings. Also, the author writes in great detail about the strength of the main characters friendships, so it feels really out of character when she completely ignores them for months late into the book. I did appreciate the promising ending, and overall the story was good. I'd definitely give it 3.5 stars if I had the option.
